NWO Rubicon Grant for dr. Iris K. Schneider

August 1, 2014 - Dr. Iris K. Schneider (VU University Amsterdam) received a Rubicon grant from the Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research (NWO) for a 1 year post-doctoral fellowship working with Professor Norbert Schwarz at the University of Southern California, Los Angeles. She will start at USC at August 1st 2014.

The aim of the Rubicon programme is to encourage talented researchers at Dutch universities and research institutes run by KNAW (Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences ) and NWO to dedicate themselves to a career in postdoctoral research. Rubicon offers researchers who have completed their doctorates in the past year the chance to gain experience at a top research institution outside the Netherlands (maximum of two years).

The Rubicon programme also offers talented researchers from abroad the opportunity to obtain grants to spend one year conducting research in the Netherlands.
